Through the signup, Lane County orchardists and private, nonindustrial forest landowners may submit an EQIP application requesting funding and planning assistance to remove, chip or otherwise treat woody debris and prunings on orchards and forestlands.
There are enough pecan trees in most naturalized areas of the pecan zones to provide adequate cross-pollination; however, the ''Desirable'' pecan is generally considered to be the best all-around pollinator, and most orchardists plant one of these pollinator trees at each end of the pecan orchard to ensure complete pollination.
They allow orchardists to plant trees as close as possible, maximizing the land area, and have them achieve their potential in as few as three years.
